National March On NRA!

NRA is losing money and possibly influence.

The National Rifle Association is facing more heat. The gun lobbyist group is linked to numerous controversies is claiming that they're in the red. Matter of fact, they are reporting that they're broke and they may have to shut down NRATV, the online streaming service that gives Wayne LaPierre, Dana Loesch, and Dan Bongino airtime.

Today there was the National March on NRA in Fairfax, Virginia.

The survivors of the most recent mass shootings have came together to protest the NRA and their grip on the Congress. The protesters are calling out the NRA for standing in the way of reasonable gun control.

They are pushing for increase restrictions to downloadable weapons, repealing the "Stand Your Ground" laws, banning the AR 15 rifle and having the IRS revoke the NRA's tax-exempt status.

It is also a recruiting drive to get people out to vote.

The protest is just the latest in months that have targeted the organization, stricter gun control laws and aim to increase voter registration after a string of mass shootings, stemming back to the high school attack in Parkland, Florida.

Protesters, including some from Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School, rallied outside the gun-rights organization and were met by several dozen of its supporters.

The protest comes on the heels of a lawsuit filed by the gun organization targeting the state of New York.

The campaign the NRA highlighted appears to be part of a national effort, spearheaded by Parkland students, calling for companies to cut ties with the group in the aftermath of several high profile U.S. shootings.

The gun lobbying group claims in its lawsuit, which targets Gov. Andrew Cuomo, the New York State Department of Financial Services and Maria Vullo, which heads the department, that the state has caused "irrecoverable loss and irreparable harm" to the organization.

Some critics of the NRA believe the claims could be false or a way to increase membership and donations.

Maria Butina also hurt the NRA. The Russian-born gun lobbyist is in federal custody awaiting trial for failing to register as a foreign agent. Butina was doing high level espionage for the Russian government. She had contact with the NRA and Rep. Dana Rohrabacher (R-CA), and others within the Republican Party.
